The Incredible, Wild, Whacky, Scary, SuperCool Future … and Why We’re Not Even Remotely Prepared, and What We Can Do About It, for the Sake of of Our Careers, Work and Organizations: A Musing on Strategies, Tactics, Attitudes, Tips, and General Observations, Such as Why a CFO Should Never Be Promoted to CEO, Why All MBA Programs Should Be Closed and Shuttered, How the “2Bs” (Bentonville and Beijing) Became the Co-capitols of the Universe, Why Only Freaks Get Things Done (in Freaky Times), Why Outrageously Audacious Devotion to Game-changing Innovation Is the PSR/Primary Survival Requisite (Duh), Why Women Are So Much Better Leaders Than Men (Duh II) (and They Also Buy Everything, Though Just Try Telling That to the World’s Advertising “Geniuses”), Why I Call Hospitals “The Killing Fields,” and How UPS & GE & IBM Are Actually All About Love! (We Will Totally Cover All This and More in 6F … or 180 Minutes in “Old Language.”)
